External programmer Parameters [resolved]

[medelec35]

If programming using PRESTO Programmer ASIX then correct format is:

Code: Select all

 /p "$(outdir)$(target).hex" /part PIC16F883

This programs target device.
The problem I'm having is trying to get target in the format of either PIC16F883 or pic16f883.
Using

Code: Select all

 $(chip)

or the format

Code: Select all

$(chipalt)

then target is only in the format 16f883.
If use

Code: Select all

$(chippath)

then format is PIC.16F.16F883
I can leave as

Code: Select all

 /p "$(outdir)$(target).hex" /part PIC16F883

but when change target device I will have to manually change the target device which is undesirable.
Any solution please?

Martin.

try this

Code: Select all

/p "$(outdir)$(target).hex" /part PIC$(chip)

you can also force upper case ...

Code: Select all

/p "$(outdir)$(target).hex" /part PIC$(chip:u)

Hi Leigh

/p "$(outdir)$(target).hex" /part PIC$(chip)

That's perfect!
All working now.

Not sure why I did not spot that.

Thank you.
